Pow!
Tue Jan 26 2010 HemBeckIf you want to pass a few minutes of the day in a fast-paced jump and attack style game, this is the best 99cents you'll spend. Graphics are stunning, reminding you of Golden Age comic book panels. There are nice touch's like ambient background noises that match the subtle changes to the linear background imagery. The controls are dead on simple: Swipe up on the left-hand portion of the screen to jump; swipe down to crouch and slide under oncoming objects. Press the lower-right side of you screen to attack. The game increase it's complexity as you travel down the endless amount of rail cars, which change in style and challenge as you go. Not sure where the end of the train is, as you cannot die and resume from where you died. You die, you die. Start over. This is why I say this is a great way to pass a few minutes, as you can quickly get frustrated by starting from the beginning over and over. But even so, I keep coming back to try the challenge over and over again.
Action Hero saves the day!
Sat Nov 14 2009 EggzbaconIn a normal, boring day, I lie around and do nothing. Then, I hear it. Gangsters are invading the train! I quickly take out my iPod Touch, and I launch Action Hero. Action Hero saved my boring day! Hooray!
Sound: 4 Stars
Awesome sound effects help me own some gangsters. The music is VERY hard to hear (Or is there music? I think I hear something...)
Graphics: 4.5 Stars
Pixelized comic graphics lets Action Hero run and avoid obstacles in style.
Controls: 5 Stars
Very good controls that are really responsive gives Action Hero better reflexes.
Gameplay: 3.5 Stars
Action Hero starts out too slow and very slow paced. Running with Action Hero is a breeze, until the gangsters get reinforcements and new obstacles come. The gameplay is very unbalanced
Replayibility: 4 Stars
Fast loading times lets you reach and help Action Hero fast. You could play this forever. The game never ends... (Unless Action Hero fails, and dies)
Overall: 4 Stars
Gameplay balance needs to be adjusted. It also need in-game high scores, not a link to a website. It is worth $0.99. Come on, just buy it, ACTION HERO NEEDS YOUR HELP!!! Good game, addictive, and uses your reflexes
Very Addictive
Mon Nov 16 2009 nonemcReally enjoying this game, I find myself playing it over and over again trying to reach a higher score/better distance. A game with such a simple concept, just run(done automatically) and jump over and duck the obstacles/dangers while punching enemies in your path. Sounds repetitive? For some reason its very addicting and fun. The game is presented well and includes online leaderboards to compete for top spots. Have to give the game 5 stars because its got me hooked on playing.
Rather basic but still quite enjoyable
Sat Dec 17 2011 CrysisDaMonkLike all Donut games, Action Hero has a very simple premise but can become quite addictive as you chase after that elusive high score! It's an endless runner type game where you also punch bad guys and either punch away or evade bottles and TNT sticks they throw at you. The comic book-style art and 'BANG!' and 'POW!' onomatopoeia makes the game feel like a comic. Action Hero is rather basic and may not stay installed on your device but the simplicity is part of its charm: there are no power-ups and other trinkets to fiddle with – just dodge obstructions, punch bad guys, and get the highest score possible. And in that sense, it succeeds! Great, fun little game.
Fun
Sat May 08 2010 LieronI haven't much to say on this app individually. It's clean, runs smoothly, and gives your ADHD ridden self five minutes to screw around with. (Or more, for hardcore achievers.) Although, a bundle app (similar to the 1-30 GAMEBOX out right now) made up of all the Doughnut games would be far more worth paying for (Granted, this app was free at the time this was written). A game bundle would increase replay value not to mention it's far more appealing than buying just one game. (I suggest a price of $1.99 or $0.99)
Just like Run!
Sun Apr 04 2010 FrostedPyroMageThis game is almost exactly like an app called Run!. I'm writing this review at the time it's free, so let me say if you have or played Run!, this is almost EXACTLY the same, and at a steal as well. If you've never played Run!, the game is a side-scrolling (where the camera moves continuously to either the left or right,) platformer. The point is to either dodge or punch obstacles that are in your way. This game is easy to learn, and hard to master. Even worth it at $0.99!
I love Donut Games
Tue Apr 20 2010 HanHan27Every game you make is fun and addicting. I am also glad you offer them for free at random. It's hard to find free games that aren't lame or the "lite" version. Action Hero is great cuz it's challenging. My friend and I compete against each other trying to beat each others high score. I can't believe all your games aren't rated 4+ stars. Y'all are crazy for rating under 4 stars. The only hard game for me is Icy Escort, otherwise I love the rest, especially Sunday Lawn! Thx Donut Games!!
time killer
Tue Jun 22 2010 ZeroThreeQuarterGreat, simple, easy to understand yet hard to master game. it's a great time killer, if you have a few easy minutes of mindless time killing, then this is the game for you!
As I said, it's a simple little game, don't expect too much, and Donut Games : don't change it! it doesn't need "challenges" it doesn't need "levels". It's got a GREAT comic book feel to it, and it's simply well made. keep up the good work!
